However, the archival life time of Te films still remains an important issue. We reported1 previously that the degradation resistance of thin Te films can be significantly improved by adjusting the deposition conditions and by a post thermal annealing step. Since information is stored in ~1μm size holes in optical recording, degradation studies based on measurements over a large area(e.g., 1cm2) can not be expected to provide complete archival life time data if degradation occurs within 1μm2 area. To this end, degradation studies have to be carried out microscopically. We have been studying both the macro- and micro-corrosion of Te and Te-alloy films. Some results of these studies are reported here.","PeriodicalId":268493,"journal":{"name":"Topical Meeting on Optical Data Storage","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129468308","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unfortunately, the output powers of most such devices are limited to several milliwatts because of catastrophic optical mirror damage (COMD), caused by absorption of the laser output, which can exceed several MW/cm2 in intensity, at the facet. One can increase the stripe width, thereby lowering the output intensity for given overall power, as is done in such structures as the channelled substrate planar (CSP), but beyond a certain stripe width the lasing mode becomes non-fundamental, resulting in a multilobed output beam. In addition, operation close to the COMD level causes sharp degradation in reliability.","PeriodicalId":268493,"journal":{"name":"Topical Meeting on Optical Data Storage","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129666835","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The transmissivity and reflectivity of these films are greatly changed by irradiation or thermal treatment below 200°C. Since no holes are made on the disc, the size of the recording dot is easy to control, and the noise caused by the edge of the hole is eliminated.
